Motorcycle Transportation
In order to match the exact requirements of each shipment we operate a wide variety of vehicles for transit within the UK and Europe.
| 1-5 bikes | 3.5 tonne Mercedes or Renault panel van |
| 6-8 bikes | 7.5 tonne box truck (with tail-lift for easy offload) |
| 8-12 bikes | 18 tonne truck (with tail-lift for easy offload) |
| Up to 30 bikes | 45 foot articulated truck with trailer (with tail-lift for easy offload) |
Our vehicles have been specially adapted to enable bikes to be strapped down for travel, thus ensuring their safe and secure arrival. Bikes are automatically fully insured during transit and the vehicles are manned at all times.
For global transport we operate alongside James Cargo Services Ltd.
Bonhams Auctions Collections
Mototrans is the recommended transport company for the Bonhams Motoring Department, importing and exporting classic motorbikes bought at auction. It is due to a request by Bonhams in 2008 that we now offer the same services for classic cars as we do for bikes.
Established in 1793, Bonhams is recognised worldwide as an auction house of distinction and is the world’s oldest and largest auctioneer of fine art and antiques still in British ownership.
The Motoring Department has a worldwide network of representatives creating a larger presence and greater specific expertise than any other International auctioneer.
eBay Auction Deliveries
We offer the same high standard of shipping for bikes purchased from the auction site eBay. This may be organised and paid for by either the vendor or the buyer and we are happy to liaise with both to ensure that all transport specifications are met.
